I just moved to Boston and I've been exploring around the area, looking for things to do and places to see. One service that's especially helpful is Eventbrite). It lets you browse and join events. There isn't an official Eventbrite app for Windows Phone, but third-party app Events for Me does a great job.

Events For Me is a Eventbrite client app for Windows Phone app that lets you tap into your Eventbrite account while on the go. What is Eventbrite? Eventbrite is an event managing service where you can promote the event, sell/buy tickets, and validate tickets at the door. Eventbrite is used for fundraisers, concerts, sporting events and industry conferences.

Events For Me supports the event attendee aspect of Eventbrite’s services. You can find events, buy tickets, display tickets for validation at the door, and more. It is an interesting app and if you find yourself attending Eventbrite events, Events For Me is worth looking into.

Windows Phone is happening. The gap for quality apps is closing every day, whether it’s an official app or an excellent third-party one. Eventbrite doesn’t have an official app on Windows Phone yet, but Events for Me is so good we might not need them. The latest update adds some sweet features that just put this over the top. Let’s check them out.

Eventbrite (www.eventbrite.com) launched back in 2006 and quickly established itself as the go-to site for event organizers. It’s a platform that allows promoters and organizers to easily set up ticket sales, promote events, plan, and more. Potential attendees can also search for events in their area. There are official apps for other platforms, but not Windows Phone. That means an opportunity for third party developers. One that’s been filled with Events For Me.
